Yes in your instance the flux follows the iron filing path but the flux lines will not do the same without the iron filings. Any iron in the path causes channeling of flux.

Greetings, yes some designs do require the presents of metal to redirect the lines of flux to work. This one does not.
Best regards

Drilling or machineing needed at 90* or what ever degree for that matter can be done by first checking the level of the drill press/boreing machine...then simply level the piece to be worked in the chuck/vise in both axis. After the first bore is compleated - rotate it 90* and relevel the 1st bore again, in both axis. This will assure the piece is correctly positioned.

Greetings, based on the suggestions I fabricated a jig consisting of 4 blocks with the centers bored out to accept the PCV pipe. The blocks are held in position by 4 threaded rods and the 90 degree holes where drilled in the appropriate locations. A bolt is placed in the first hole to hold the pipe in its location as the other 90 degrees holes are drilled. I will post pic's after the camera is repaired. Yes, I broke it. On the bright side, magnets are glued in the rotors and today I should find out if the vertically stacked stators will work for the PMA. The PMA has been fabricated so the stators can be wired for series, Delta, or Star.
Thanks for all the help received. Cheers

Greetings, completed assembly of vertically stacked multiple stator PMA. It works. Spinning by hand with no load at very low RPM output was approximately 24 volts AC. ;) Cheers
